Advanced Dictionary

Editors' ReviewDownload.com staffOctober 28, 2002This utility helps you quickly translate words and simple phrases between English and Romanian but can't perform more advanced language-related chores. The straight-ahead interface offers two tabs: one for translating some 27,000 English words to Romanian, and another that changes about 30,000 Romanian words into their English equivalents. However, if you type a word that's not in the application's database, you won't get any results. Nor can Advanced Dictionary translate complete sentences or longer blocks of text. Since Romanian translation utilities are fairly rare, we can see how folks who routinely work with this language will find the program a good resource. However, those who need a wider variety of languages obviously will have to look for something else.
